Sitting in the Dentist's waiting room

When waiting for your name, what runs through your mind, are you one who's bracing for what's to come, or struggling to hide your excitement? What's your favorite part

If I'm there to have a tooth filled my stomach is in knots while I'm sitting in the waiting room. Bracing for the temporary impairment from the nitrous gas I'm going to breathe. Favorite part is right after the numbing shots when they put the isolite suction/bite block thing in my mouth. It stops me from talking and breathing through my mouth so I have no choice to relax and get a few good whiffs of the gas.

LOL. I can't stand going to the dentist's. No joy in the waiting room for me. I do not look forward to my teeth being cleaned. I had a cavity filled in one of my back teeth. I do not want to experience that again. It was my first and hopefully last cavity.

I love the nitrous oxide.

I even get nitrous when I have my teeth cleaned.

I love the feeling as it starts to numb my brain.

I love listening to my music, often Billy Joel or Queen or Elton John, all from the 1970s, or The Beatles from the 1960s, as the pull of the nitrous takes over.

I look forward to the nitrous and the music.

And I don't really care what the dentist and the assistant or the hygienist do in my mouth whilst I'm flying high on the nitrous oxide and the music.
